Over in the Forest – Come and Take a Peek





 Written by Marianne

Berkes and illustrated by Jill Dubin.





Come and participate in this self Guided StoryWalk for PreK kids

with adults! This story follows the rhythm and rhyme scheme of “Over in the

Meadow” as mothers teach their babies life skills. Follow the tracks of ten

woodland animals but . . . uh-oh . . . watch out for the skunk!





About the Trail: This StoryWalk® takes

place on the Crystal Springs Trail at Greenwood Park (across from Stone Zoo).

Trail starts from the Parking Lot behind the granite wall. The trail is an easy

walk. Trail can accommodate jogging strollers.  Each day, anytime between

10am and 5pm, parents and children are invited to enjoy a Story Book Walk in

the Fells.





 The Massachusetts Department of Conservation and

Recreation
(DCR), Mass in Motion, the North Suburban Child and

Family Resource Network
and Friends of Middlesex Fells would like to

acknowledge and thank The StoryWalk® Project created by Anne Ferguson of

Montpelier, VT and developed in
collaboration with the Vermont Bicycle

& Pedestrian Coalition and the Kellogg
Hubbard Library for

their work and inspiration.
